A race against time, war, and the very fabric of the universe itself,
perfect for fans of Sliding Doors and 11/22/63.
Sixteen-year-old Winnie Schulde has always seen splits--the moment when
two possible outcomes diverge, one in her universe and one in another.
Multiverse theory, Winnie knows, is all too real, though she has never
been anything but an observer of its implications--a secret she keeps
hidden from just about everyone, as she knows the uses to which it might
be put in the midst of a raging WWII. But her physicist father, wrapped
up in his research and made cruel by his grief after the loss of
Winnie's mother, believes that if he pushes her hard enough, she can
choose one split over another and maybe, just maybe, change their future
and their past.
Winnie is certain that her father's theories are just that, so she plays
along in an effort to placate him. Until one day, when her father's
experiment goes wrong and Scott, the kind and handsome lab assistant
Winnie loves from afar, is seriously injured. Without meaning to, Winnie
chooses the split where Scott is unharmed. And in doing so, finds
herself pulled into another universe, an alternate reality. One that
already has a Winnie.
In this darkly thrilling novel that blends science and war with love and
loss, some actions just can't be undone.
